art easel

For big guy's second birthday, Gmom Dino purchased him this awesome Melissa & Doug art easel with the really cool accessory pack (containing paints, paint cups, paint brushes, dry erase marker, eraser, and paper roll.)  this easel is the bomb!  it was easy to put together, super cute, two different trays, chalkboard, dry erase board, and then the paper roll that you can clip (yes, clips included) the paper down.  Anyway, big guy's birthday was in February.  Hubs built it this past wednesday. 

Big guy is obsessed with it.  So fun to watch him use his chalk.  We haven't busted out the paints yet, but I did roll down the paper and we've been coloring with crayons.  He thinks it's so fun to be able to just draw whenever he's feeling the urge.  Such an artist!  I'm excited for paints, but need to wait until we are in need of a good activity and that big guy is in a good mood.  it could go horribly wrong, like I end up wasting a bunch of paint.  But I'm excited that he likes it so much.  We clearly made a good choice for his birthday presents.  I'm getting a little nervous b/c the holidays are coming up and now I have to think of more big ticket items for three grandmom's to buy.  Ahhhhh!
